The Northern Ireland Hotels Federation (NIHF) Golf Fundraiser, which was held in Galgorm Castle this summer, has raised £1,740 for AWARE – the Depression Charity for Northern Ireland and the only charity working exclusively for people with depression and bipolar disorder.
Monies raised on the day were matched by the NIHF in recognition of the importance of mental health and the role of AWARE.
A Derry/Londonderry-born charity, it has two offices; one in Derry-Londonderry and a second office in Belfast.
Discussing the donation NIHF President Stephen Meldrum says:
“We’re thrilled that our members gave so generously to support AWARE. This charity relies entirely on local donations to enable it to provide the support that it does to local people affected by depression. I know what a difference their services can make.”
Thanking the Northern Ireland Hotels Federation, Community Fundraising Officer for AWARE, Lesley Wright, adds:
“At AWARE we believe little things make a big difference and we strive to make a really difficult time for our service users and their families a little easier.
“AWARE has an established network ofsupport groups across Northern Ireland, which are run by trained volunteers. Support groups welcome people with depression and bipolar disorder, as well as carers for people with the illness. We also deliver Information Outreach sessions and attend community events to give more information about AWARE and our services.
“We are most grateful to NIHF President, Stephen Meldrum, for nominating AWARE to receive this funding and support.”
